Vtrak a-ClaSS PrOduCt liCenSe
Each VTrak A-Class model is shipped with a trial license installed. The license purchased species the number
of clients and other features of the SAN. Contact your PROMISE sales representative for details on what license
types are available.
When the VTrak A-Class unit is received, follow the instructions in this manual or in the Quick Start Guide
to set it up. Typically you will want to also download client software to the client systems, install and run the
software before you actually log in to the VTrak for the rst time. This way all the clients will be detected and
can be added to the SAN for immediate use when setup is completed. License activation is accomplished with
a special setup wizard when the system is rst set up. The quickest way to activate the license is to make sure
the VTrak has an established Internet connection, then proceed to activate the license automatically. Part of the
initial setup procedure launched automatically upon logging in, is conguration of the network settings to allow
Internet connection. Then you can proceed through the Setup Wizard process to get the product license, create
the SAN and File Systems.
See “System Setup” on page 1 for details on how to use the setup wizards, including the License Activation
Wizard.
